Coronary Angioplasty

Coronary Angioplasty – Affordable Minimally Invasive Heart Treatment Abroad

Restore Blood Flow. Relieve Chest Pain. Avoid Open-Heart Surgery.

What Is Coronary Angioplasty?

Coronary Angioplasty, also known as Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), is a minimally invasive heart procedure that opens blocked or narrowed coronary arteries to improve blood flow to the heart. It is commonly used to treat coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart attacks.

During the procedure, a balloon catheter is inserted into the artery to widen the blockage, and a stent is placed to keep the artery open permanently.

Why Is Coronary Angioplasty Done?

This procedure is performed to:

  • Restore blood flow to the heart muscle
  • Relieve chest pain (angina)
  • Prevent future heart attacks
  • Avoid major heart surgery
  • Improve quality of life in patients with blocked arteries

It is often the first line of treatment in emergency heart conditions such as acute myocardial infarction (heart attack).

 How the Procedure Works

  1. Access: A small catheter is inserted through a blood vessel in the wrist or groin.
  2. Navigation: The catheter is guided to the coronary artery using real-time X-ray imaging.
  3. Balloon Inflation: A small balloon is inflated to open the blocked artery.
  4. Stent Placement: A drug-eluting stent (DES) or bare-metal stent (BMS) is inserted to keep the artery open.
  5. Closure: The catheter is removed, and pressure or a vascular closure device is applied.

🕒 Procedure Time: 30 mins – 2 hours
🏥 Hospital Stay: 1–2 days
⏱️ Recovery Time: 5–7 days

Types of Stents Used in Angioplasty

  • Drug-Eluting Stents (DES) – slowly release medication to prevent re-narrowing
  • Bare-Metal Stents (BMS) – standard metal support tubes
  • Bioabsorbable Stents – dissolve naturally over time (less common)

Who Should Consider Coronary Angioplasty?

This treatment is ideal for:

  • Patients with stable angina or chronic chest pain
  • Individuals with acute coronary syndrome
  • People with significant coronary artery blockages
  • Those at risk of or recovering from a heart attack
  • Patients seeking a non-surgical alternative to bypass surgery

Risks & Complications

While generally safe, some risks may include:

  • Bleeding or bruising at the catheter site
  • Blood clots or restenosis (re-narrowing)
  • Allergic reactions to contrast dye
  • Heart rhythm problems (rare)

Your cardiologist will assess your suitability and guide you through all safety protocols.
